Handmade gift of the day: Painted Oven Mitts

These cute oven mitts are a delightful gift idea for the kids to make for dad, mum, grandma, grandad, or family friends. They are perfect for any occasion as a birthday gift, Christmas gift, Mother's Day/Father's Day gift, or even a Thank You gift.

Why we love them:

They are simple to make - just grab a plain oven mitt and some fabric paint.

You can pick up oven mitts pretty cheaply in any discount department store.

You can pick your colours to suit your recipient or occasion, i.e. blue or red for a man, pink or purple for a woman and red and green for Christmas.

The handprints are a great design - they are personalized and capture a moment in time when the kids are a certain age. We also love date-stamping them too.
